Dolley Madison

While waiting for a book on James Madison to become available, I have decided to read Dolley by Rita Mae Brown. It is the best book I have read so far. This book was more personable with imagined conversations and emotions. I enjoyed the diary entries interspersed with events. This book only covers the last year of the war of 1812. I loved reading about the fashions and the day to day activities. This author even included a map and a list of characters so I would have some idea of who all these people were that I kept reading about. Thank you Rita!
